I have installed Puppy on H/disk, and boot using Grub.
Is there a way of automating Grub or the boot process so that one doesn't have to type in all the parameters? I.E: just press enter to the Grub request and all else follows without further ado?

Hmm, I have a dual boot system with Windows 98 and Puppy. Once I choose Puppy it boots up without any more input from me. I am thinking of erasing Windows and not even having the Grub screen. Just turn it on and up comes Puppy. I'm not sure why you would have to enter any parameters. What is it that you are having to enter at every boot?

I tried to change the 2nd line to use hda1 instead of hda2, and found that it tried to load Mepis (unsuccessfully). I thought Mepis had been wiped when
I installed Puppy.
Is it safe for me to delete - or maybe re-format - hda1? Or must I re-install Puppy?

I will, meanwhile, try some of the suggestions people have made.

I have what seems to be a residue of stuff from Mepis, on hda1.
I don't have Windows. I'll try to fix Menu.1st as suggested by Rarsa
(thanks, Rarsa - and everyone else).
Any advice about reformating hda1 - or is that too dangerous?

You can reinstall to hard disk, but using Puppy 1.04, press 3 at boot time, then ENTER, so Puppy will not use partition 1 (that you want to use for installation)._________________Puppy user since Oct 2004. Want FreeOffice? Get the sfs (English only).
